I purchased a ECS 5VB motherboard and can't get Windows 95 OR 98 to load.
Usually, half-way through the installation or sometimes to completion, it
loses the partition and the hdd is useless.  Everything works fine if I just
load DOS.  I've tried 3 different hard drives and get the same result.  I
repartition and format each drive, but same result.  It's been 4 weeks since
my last e-mail to the manufacturer, to no avail.

Does anyone have any clues as to what would be causing this?  The mb
auto-detects the hdd(s) correctly.  I even selected BIOS defaults, but no
luck.  It has a 200MMX CPU in it.
